Bestwork Industries for the Blind located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, is seeking to hire veterans who are blind or visually impaired. Bestwork Industries was founded in 1981 by Vincenzo James “Jim” Varsaci, a BVA founding member present at the organization’s first meeting at Avon Old Farms Army Convalescent Hospital on March 28, 1945, while he recuperated from combat injuries during World War II. 

Bestwork is now the largest employer in the state of New Jersey for persons who are legally blind. There are full-time and part-time positions open in the following areas: textile apparel construction, kitting/light assembly, packaging, and document scanning/digital imaging. Bestwork is a competitive, integrated environment offering industry wages and opportunities for upward mobility.
